Words by Emily Shapiro, Photo by Martei Korley—

For many of us, Labor Day weekend is full of excitement and stimulation. There’s parties and parades and then Tuesday hits and we are forced to face the reality that we are not living in an infinite Carnival. If you are experiencing this kind of slackness withdrawal, get your fix with the King of the Dancehall’s new video. Beenie Man, who plans to release a new album later this year, has just released some visuals for his latest track “Dweet Again” on the Mercury Riddim, produced by Chase Millz and Jah Snowcone. Beenie’s made some classic videos over the years and this one, directed by Ras Tingle, taps into that tradition, mixing vintage and current party scenes as a statement on the staying power of Beenie’s style and music. Check the video below, and stay tuned for what will no doubt be a dope album:
